I worked three summers in Yellowstone. 85 at Mammoth, 91 at Old Faithful and 95 at Grant Village. As for Steamboat Geyser, it is unpredictable, although it went off more last summer then any other year. Buffalo are every where as are elk. After awhile I just kinda got jaded by seeing them all the time. You did a good job, I usually tell people they need a full week in the park to see the "best parts". I hiked alone and the most dangerous critter I saw was a Moose. And I know you didn't have a lot of time, but you missed out on Lake. A very nice hotel there. That whole stretch of road from Grant Village to Fishing Bridge is worth the drive. Many people buy bottled water due to the mineral heavy water in Yellowstone. You get used to it after awhile, but for a short visit, it can be hard to drink, unless they have set up stations to filter the water.
Wow, that must have been an amazing experience to work there during the summer. I do wish we had a chance to explore more of Lake Yellowstone. Perhaps we'll get a chance to return in a few years. 😊
Have you been to Yellowstone National Park? Do you have any other tips for those visiting the park? 😎 Also, be prepared of "bear" sightings and not "beds". I guess that's what happens when you're editing the video late at night! 🤦🏻♂️
I have been twice as a kid. AMD we have a 2 week vacation planned for mid July. Are you able to provide guidance if you think we will still have a good trip with all the challenges of covid19?
It's hard to tell, to be honest. The park reopened today, but it sounds like they have a lot of restrictions to promote social distancing. I imagine it won't be exactly the same experience, but since the very nature and structure of a national park trip is to be away from others, I imagine that it will still be a meaningful experience.
Thanks Barbara! Now that the national parks are slated to open soon, I'll see if I can work through the other parks that we visited on our trip (Capitol Reef, Canyonlands, Grand Teton, and Bryce Canyon). To be honest, these are my favorite videos to edit (though they are a bit more time consuming). 😊
@@TripAstute I experienced Yellowstone back in 1978 when I went with a buddy of mine on road trip which was a graduation present from my parents and his. I know it is a living place and always changing so I do need to get back there.
Thanks Jae! I'm glad to hear that the video was helpful. If you have any questions prior to your trip, please don't hesitate to reach out. Hope you have a wonderful time at Yellowstone National Park! 😎
Awesome. Glad the video was helpful. We used to have maps on our website as well, but since we've stopped creating content, we decided to retire the site. Though I'm glad the video is still providing value. 😊
Maybe the most complete and thorough video I’ve watched on visiting the greatest park on the planet. I’m headed back in late October and this video made me wish it was tomorrow! Amazing job on creating this video.
My first visit to your channel was quite enjoyable! I will look up other of your videos to enjoy them as well. I first visited Yellowstone nearly 70 years ago! I have lived in Missouri, Arizona, Colorado, and now the Olympic Peninsula of Washington state. Not always as close to Yellowstone as I would like, but still close enough for many, many revisits. On this platform, I have seen many Yellowstone videos, from excellent to absolutely terrible. Yours is definitely one of the better ones! You have covered the entire park without it being tedious to the viewer. It is a good all-around guide to what to do and see in the park. Well done! I look forward to watching your other videos. Our next trip to Yellowstone will be in two weeks. I made the reservations last December, unaware of what was coming in the spring. At first, all National Parks were closed. Then they opened up, but offered limited services. Since we travel with our pup, we always book lodging in the cabins, available at Old Faithful, Lake Yellowstone, Canyon, and Mammoth. At first, they were the only accommodations open. Now, some parts of the hotels have opened, but the food services are limited, and take-out only. We always planned for lunchtime picnics, because of our dog being with us, so that will work out OK. Another disappointment is the closure of all the Visitor Centers. I am mostly interested in the thermal areas, and the Old Faithful Visitor center is a favorite haunt. Now the geyser predictions are posted on a sandwich board outside. Since connectivity in the park, as you noted, is slim to none, my geyser prediction app has been pretty much useless. Also, laundries in the campgrounds and hotels are closed. If you want to do laundry, West Yellowstone, Cooke City (Northeast Entrance) and Gardiner (North Entrance) are your only choices. All but Gardiner are about an hour drive from the Loop Road. I was glad you made the point about taking care with the wildlife. Some folks think Yellowstone is a petting zoo. It is NOT! I see videos of close, near-disastrous encounters and just have to wonder what people are thinking! Well, obviously they are not. People think that rules mean everyone else, not them. Be that as it may, your warnings were valuable, and I hope well heeded. I also see on the Upper Geyser Basin web cam , many younger visitors (not just kids, but teens and older who should know better) walking off the boardwalks, I guess to prove how brave and fearless they are. I shake my head in wonder. My husband refers to it as Darwinism.....the dregs of the gene pool will eliminate themselves by this kind of behavior. Sorry for the long post. Thank you again for a well thought out and presented video. One tiny suggestion.....you maybe could speak just a little slower.
Great video. Love the watch for "bed" (bear) warning. 🤣 Never been in the park on foot, always flew through it. Got some great photographs from the air. We do enjoy hiking / camping and this video was very well made. Definitely need to put this on the list. Yea, bison aren't meant to be dealt with. They look very timid but there was one time I was flying overhead in a helicopter (CH-53E) and heard a very loud bang. Thought something happened to the helicopter. Pilot told me to look out on port side and when I did, two Bison were head butting each other. The power of their hits were so great that you could hear it through all the noise and radio chatter on the bird.
Darn! I knew I should have done one more check before publishing the video. I was up late last night editing and was definitely thinking about bed. 😄 That's insane that you could hear the bison from the helicopter. We also heard a rumbling sound when we were on the off-road trail. It ended being a herd of bison running down a hill. I have to admit that I had a few seconds of terror until they stopped at the field near us!
Ernest your videos are great credit card or travel videos I don’t care which, You are the best. I will visit these parks when this corona garbage is over!
Thank you for the video. It help a lot for my assignment about Yellowstone. It is very brief explanations about the itinerary to go to yellowstone. THANK YOU SO MUCH ❤
I’m not a big commenter but I just found your video and I’ve been to Yellowstone 5 times I’ve went in and out of all the entrances still haven’t seen all it has to offer but I have to say for someone looking to go for their first time this is the most informative video I’ve ever seen. Kudos to you sir.
Thanks for the feedback. Glad the video was informative and helpful (especially from the perspective of someone who has visited the park multiple times). 😊
We were there last week and as soon as we got home we booked another Airbnb already for next October. I highly recommend going in Oct, the park was empty and the weather was perfect for the time of year:) Great vid!
Thanks Ryan! Glad the destination videos are helpful. These are the most fun videos for us to make, so I'm hoping to do more of them (especially while credit cards slow down due to the economy). 😊
You you mean things about getting credit card points? I had a friend who had those baseball card sheets of credit card just so he can get points. He was able to get first class tickets doing that.
Wonderful videography and narrative. I liked your suggestions about binoculars and polarize sunglasses. You missed Hayden Valley and the river. That’s where we’ve seen the most wildlife, especially moose and baby moose, and wolves in the spring.
Thanks Gregg! I wish we spent more time at the Hayden Valley. We did drive down there one evening and saw a ton of bison. It was absolutely incredible! 😊
Ernest! Key Club President and birthday buddy?! I'm planning a trip to Yellowstone and just stumbled upon your video! Small world. Thanks for the tips!
Ha! It's great to hear from you, Winnie! Hope the video was helpful and that you have a wonderful trip to Yellowstone National Park. Oh, and happy early birthday to you. 😊
Hry Ernest, awesome video. Nice break from all these stimulus check and virus videos in youtube. Ive been there once when i was young and cant wait to go back there. Btw it looks like we both can use some haircut soon 😁
Oh yes, We went to Yellowstone last September, we really needed the break from all the lockdowns. I hope you get a chance to go there. Will you be planning any trips for 2021?
I was an employee there in 1980,and '81,and I remember those hot springs,although the shops at canyon look renovated obviously,I worked in the food service area,and I didnt recognize the buffet area.
Yeah, the dining area looked brand new when we visited. The fact that they had different food stations was really impressive, but I'm guessing it's to cater to more international visitors. 😊
Hi Ernest, it looks like you and your wife chose to drive around Yellowstone. Was there an option to take a park shuttle to the different areas like in Zion? I'm just trying to decide if we should do a class C camper (park and stay put) or do the hotel and car route like you guys did. Thank you!
Hi Courtney! I don't remember seeing any shuttle service within the park. To be honest, I would plan to drive around, especially given the size of the park. Though you may be able to do it with your camper as well. When we visited, I remember seeing a lot of campers going from one stop to another. The only trade-off is that you won't be able to take a camper on any of the dirt roads. Hope that's helpful. Though let us know if you have any other questions. 😊
Hello - loved your video. We were thinking of going to Yellowstone in May of this year but now I"m thinking that might not be enough time to plan and reserve rooms. Any thoughts?
It's hard to tell with the pandemic. It also depends on where you want to stay. Getting a reservation inside the park can be tough. But if you're willing to stay outside the park, there are a lot of options. The lodging at the park is expensive too. However, it is worth the extra cost and convenience (in my opinion). 😊
Thank you! We stayed at Teton Mountain Lodge in Teton Village. It is outside the national park in Jackson Hole, but it is fun area to explore. You can take a tram to the top of the mountain for some great hiking. 😎
Good video! We're going in 2 weeks for the first time since 1987. Sad that the visitors centers and ranger programs are shutdown this year but still a lot to see.
Trip Astute We has a great time! A little more crowded than I remember it but we got to see everything we wanted (including a close encounter with a buffalo on the Old Faithful Geyser boardwalk) in mostly good weather.
Thank you! Glad the video was helpful. It's hard to say how much we spent, especially since we were able to offset a lot of the lodging and the airline costs with credit card points. It was also our honeymoon, so we weren't as careful about our spending. 😊
Your video is so informative .it helps me a lot when planning our trip there in June. Just 1 quick question, you talkes about the offline map app, would you recommend a good app that you used? Thanks so much
Thank you! Glad the video was helpful. There are several offline maps out there, though I stick with Google Maps. You can opt inside the app to download maps offline for a certain area, which really helps when you have limited coverage. 😊
I would like for you to have a Yosemite version of this. It would be helpful. Most videos are hiking and drone footage. Have you been there because in one of your other National Park Guides, you compared that park to Yosemite. That's why I think you've been there but is that true?
I've actually been to Yosemite four times, but they were all before I started this channel, so I don't have any footage from my trips. Though we're planning to go once the pandemic is over. 😊
A nice Tour of Yellowstone National Park. Thanks for sharing your experience . 👍indeed we just got back recently from a long and exhausted road trip 👉 Yellowstone and Glacier National Parks. Flying to salt lake City is a wise choice if not in the pandemic 🙏
Thanks! That must have been a great trip to Yellowstone and Glacier National Park. We haven't been able to travel for a while, so we can't wait until things settle down so we can start exploring again. 😎
Man, you put this video when we can't travel 😪 Great vid though. One of the parks that I really wanted to visit this year. It does stink that you couldn't redeem points for the hotels. A spreadsheet or itinerary document that you can share with us about all the expenses incurred?
I am working on it! I should be adding one to the website soon so folks can download a summary of the itinerary. Also, it sounds like the National Parks may be reopening soon, which is why I decided to release this one. It's been sitting in my pipeline for a long time! 😄
We used to post our itineraries on our website, but we've since discontinued it. I feel like there are too many variables and we kept getting blamed for things not being available during a visit. I would use the video for inspiration as you start planning your own trip and designing your own itinerary.
do u wear a mask when your not in a place like a restraunt or cafe or lodge or entering a hotel ? since ur gonna be walking around i wonder if the animals would wear one too hahaha
I haven't visited a national park during the pandemic, but I believe that you visitors are required to wear them at any of the attractions in the park. I think they've also designed certain paths as one-way only.
I don't think it's due to explode soon, but you never know! I definitely recommend checking it out though since it is such an incredible and unique place.

I don't think it's due to explode soon, but you never know! I definitely recommend checking it out though since it is such an incredible and unique place.
Little do they know there right on top of a volcano...
Ha. You are correct! I remember reading that there was some increased seismic activity in the area recently. 😱
Yep it's been 4000 years since its last eruption so yeah basically we're dead it's the size of the USA and Canada combined
Be prepared for bed sightings!!!
Hahaha! That’s what happens when I try to edit into the early morning hours. 😂😭😴
